Excellent Yada - the longitude and latitude work is top quality - great start
While making this map on Google, I learnt about how one must mark and label different areas on a map. We had to create a map on google, representing Codrington. The different colors are representatives for different areas of the location.
I made this map in humanities. We were given pieces of cardboard, and a flat 2d map. The map was directed towards the codrington area, and the map had contour lines, wich we based our final product on. We cut the contour lines, and then layered it. So the final result was like this... the 3d map helps me see height and it is more dramatic and far more simple to study heights, and measurment this way.
Create a contour map of the area around Codrington. It should be neat, accurate and have a key attached to it with a title and a scale
Not very accurate or well planned. Messy and no real feel for the 3D environment
Model starting to look like the area but still some errors in adding information to the model.
Contours are shown and the model shows the area clearly. However may still miss some aspects of the environment. Key added but not all required points on the map.
Clear use of contours to show 3D. Main features of landscape added. E.g. school, roads. Well constructed and clear. Key excellent and clear.
Create a map of Codrington School using Google Earth
Not clear. No title or key.
No Key but rest is fine
Clear map with a key but no title or border
Clear map with key and title , border and north sign.
Create a tour of the school
Not done, or too simple
Not many points. No written information about the points or tour is not in order. Not enough photos.
Accurate placing of points and photos. May not contain enough photos or written information too limited
Tour on mapwing which contains photos. Or video tour, or extremely well described tour with photos.
Ability to stick to deadlines
Constantly missed all deadlines
Missed a couple and therefore not all finished properly.
Nearly all deadlines met
All deadlines met consistently
Excellent Yada – yes, unfortunately if you cut the original map you did in google earth down, you miss out the north sign and the scale. Make sure you always keep it in a map. However, mostly top quality work ..
